My name is Alexandra Mars. If you guessed it, I am an inspiring author pursuing my goal to become published. My friends, call me, Alex, and welcome to my blog. I write fantasy and science fiction because I find that genre fascinating to me, for there are so many paths a writer can take in his/her world.

I have been creating stories my whole life when I was a child, my Barbie dolls and My Little Ponies all had their own personalities. In middle school I discovered my creative writing skills, and I have remained on this path ever since. The journey to arrive at this point hasn’t been easy for me, and at times been very arduous. Now, I see excellent things in my future, and I hope you and I can take the next stage of this wonderful journey together.

In April, I completed my rough draft of my short story. At the beginning of May, I started reviewing my story. I am in the process of editing my draft one. This stage is a bit time consuming for I’m placing my characters in certain events to have an intriguing plot with good pacing.

The new scenes, rewritten original scenes, and the new changes in Draft One there is more a define direction in the story. I’m focusing on the plot, pacing, and the events in the correct order to create a fantastic story for my readers.

On a personal note, my family adopted a kitty, Golden Shadow from a local rescue two years ago. I can’t believe how time flies. In February he turned three. He is one happy cat and enjoying life.

If you want a pet, please adopt from a local shelter or a rescue you will be saving an animal’s life. If you can’t adopt, please consider donating money or volunteering so an animal can find a forever home.
